I’ve noticed this phenomena all over. Same with our old home movies: they usually are of something like a high school graduation ceremony, but the really good parts are the times when the camera catches people talking normally, discussing plans for dinner that night or whatever.
- seoulmetro 2y agoIt's going to happen again with digital. You just won't know which parts you'll miss. It won't be street walking, it won't be selfies, it might be your home with boring videos of you cooking or looking in the fridge. No one records that anymore, but we used to with video tapes. I have a feeling we will really miss supermarket and retail interior footage with people actually shopping.
- ip26 2y agoIMO the reason that's so priceless is because of how little of it was recorded. If there existed a vast archive of footage displaying mundane normalcy, you would quickly tune out.
